Our Crossfire's use the Canbus system to warn of a light out, so when people replace bulbs with LED's you either have to use a resistor or a "Canbus Friendly" LED to keep the light on the dash from warning of a light out? Am I right so far? So a "Canbus friendly" LED pretty much bypasses the Canbus system to 'shut it up' and if the LED stops functioning you would never know it by the dash light, but only by looking at the LED that should be on?

I'm wanting to add LED's and Possible HID's but can we really trust these if we have no way to know if they stop functioning except by walking around the car and observing the lights? Are there any LED's that actually work with Canbus to show if it stops functioning?

Is there a brand of LED lights that actually have a long dependable life?
